Faggots are a traditional dish in the UK, especially South and Mid Wales and the Midlands of England.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The West Midlands, Warwickshire and Northamptonshire )〕〔 (payment required)〕〔 (payment required)〕 It is made from meat off-cuts and offal, especially pork.〔 A faggot is traditionally made from pig's heart, liver and fatty belly meat or bacon minced together, with herbs added for flavouring and sometimes bread crumbs. Faggots originated as a traditional cheap food of ordinary country people in Western England, particularly west Wiltshire and the West Midlands. Their popularity spread from there, especially to South Wales in the mid-nineteenth century, when many agricultural workers left the land to work in the rapidly expanding industry and mines of that area. Faggots are also known as "ducks" in the Yorkshire, Lincolnshire and Lancashire, often as "savoury ducks." The first use in print of the term "Savory Ducks" was in the 'Manchester Courier and Lancashire General Advertiser' - Saturday 3 June 1843; a news report of a gluttonous man who ate 20 Savory Ducks. The first use in print cited in the ''Oxford English Dictionary'' is in 1851, from Henry Mayhew, where he describes a dish identical to the modern product with chopped liver and lights in an outer wrapper of caul. This was in London. In classic sauce making, a faggot is also a herb bundle, or bouquet garni of bay leaf, thyme and parsley tied together. ==Preparation and serving== Commonly, the faggot consists of minced pork liver and heart, wrapped in bacon, with onion and breadcrumbs. Often, the faggot is cooked in a crock with gravy and served with peas and mashed potato. The mixture is shaped by hand into small balls, wrapped with caul fat (the omentum membrane from the pig's abdomen), and baked. Another variation of faggot is Pig's fry wrapped in pig's caul: the pig's fry and boiled onions are minced (ground) together, then mixed with breadcrumbs or cold boiled potatoes, seasoned with sage, mixed herbs and pepper, all beaten together and then wrapped in small pieces of caul to form a ball. They are then baked in the oven and are usually served cold. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Faggot (food)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
